This project will design and implement an eight-week entrepreneurial program for approximately 100 participating teams (each consisting of three researchers within the educational and learning technology field) focused on finding problem-solution fit and developing a minimum viable product (MVP). The training and curriculum proposed will be based on teachings from the NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps™) program and the Lean Startup pedagogy that focuses on the identification of a business model. The curriculum will teach value propositions, stakeholder identification, methods to build customer relationships, and distribution processes. These educational sessions will be interspersed with customer discovery activities as well as interviews with industry experts to expand the teams’ awareness of the educational/commercial ecosystem. This experience has the potential to provide all teams with the resources and foundational tools necessary to move their proposed innovations in learning and technology out of the lab and into the market.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将为大约100个参与团队（每个团队由教育和学习技术领域的三名研究人员组成）设计和实施为期八周的创业计划，重点是寻找问题解决方案并开发最小可行产品（MVP）。拟议的培训和课程将基于NSF创新团队（I-Corps™）计划和精益创业教学法的教学，重点是识别商业模式。该课程将教授价值主张，利益相关者识别，建立客户关系的方法和分销流程。这些教育会议将穿插客户发现活动以及与行业专家的访谈，以扩大团队对教育/商业生态系统的认识。这一经验有可能为所有团队提供必要的资源和基础工具，将他们提出的学习和技术创新从实验室推向市场。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
